🗓️ Launching this Saturday 18 February at Sullivan+Strumpf Naarm/Melbourne, Sam Jinks's new solo exhibition, 'Hope In The Wilderness', presents hyperrealist sculptures that feel as if of this world and another.
His first solo exhibition in Australia in over a decade, this highly anticipated body of works upholds Jinks's ability to compel and disquiet.
Join us for opening drinks in our Naarm/Melbourne gallery this Saturday 18 February, 3 – 5PM.
